I'm looking for a product design or design leadership role where I can bring my experience to a collaborative, multicultural team. I do my best work in environments built on trust, autonomy, clear organization, and respectful collaboration, where I can contribute strategically while staying close to the work.

I create digital products and design systems that turn complexity into clear, cohesive experiences.
ColombiaWhat I'm looking for
I'm a Staff Product Designer. I've alternated between designing digital products and leading design teams for international clients across different sectors and time zones. My work spans research, information architecture, user flows, wireframes and high-fidelity mockups. My clients have included Finastra, Gore, LendingClub, Luminate, Indeed and Qiddiya, across banking, insurance, technology and entertainment.
I use AI every day, at work and outside it. At work it helps me analyze, prototype and speed up processes. On my own I go further: I build applications and automate workflows to solve my own needs.
